Comparative Civilizations 12 (generally available to grade 11-12 students) Also an approved course in many universities).
Take an exciting odyssey through the ages, from ancient Egypt to Bismarck’s Prussia. Reflect upon the times of men and women – kings and queens, conquerors and slaves, philosophers and athletes, artists and scientists – as they lived in China, Japan, India, Aztec Mexico, and Renaissance Europe. How did the gods and heroes affect the daily lives of the ancient Greeks and Romans? What are the world’s major religions and who first practiced them? Ultimately, what is ‘civilization’? Through discussion, research projects, films, simulation games and slide presentations, discover how we have evolved from Sumerian city-states into a global village.
